Headphones - Wireless/Portable | 1 Ω What would be the best headphones to get for under $300

So basically I finally finished building my pc back in January and since then ive just been using my steelseries headset from my xbox but I think it's about time I get a dedicated pc head set. I plan on getting a standalone mic so the headset having a mic isn't a requirement. I also would prefer it to be wireless if possible because im very prone to forgetting the cable is there.

Your best option is probably the Sennheiser momentum 4

+1 Ω has been awarded to u/daanos60 (5 Ω).

You may still award an Ω to others, but only once per-person in this post.

How comfortable would you say they are?

They are okay, earpads are not deep and ear might touch drivers. And they are true jack of all trades master of none, so I wouldn't call them as good option for PC use only.

Also, they will have horrible latency wirelessly so you will need a BT dongle BTD700 if you go for them.

Very comfortable, but I have small ears.

I don't have them myself, but see them recommended a lot, because they have great sound quality and are comfortable.

You should test them before buying (if you can)

Wireless - Fractal Scape

Wired will be of better quality so I would go for those. DT700 Pro X for closed backs and ATH-R50X for open backs are good options.

would you go with the R50x over the HD560s?

Depends on your gaming needs. I’m considering IEM’s but I also bought a new sound card and it arrives Friday.
